Krk's patent for improvements in
fixing colors applies to lustres and SINH
lar goods used for linlngs. The usual
system of finishing off these goods after
dyeing is to dry them over tins in the
usual way. According to the statement
of the inventor, the color SO finished Is
not fast: "When the tailor's iron is
applied to the seams to iron the same,
| the color fades or flies as the damp
cloth draws out the color or colors,"
causing a great drawback III the en-
ploymept of lustre goods for Innings.
Instead of drying the goods oyer tins
IT is proposed to dry them cool by hang
ing up. or passing them backwards and
forwards on rollers in an apparatus
supplied by means of a fan with a strong
current of cool air. This change OF
treatment is said to make the colors
faster.

grasses become matured enough to

Fowls are machines to prodace
eggs and flesh, and we might as well
expect cloth from a factory that f1as
no wool or cotton as to expect eggs
from hens not supplied with food.
Liberal feeding mean liberal profits;
fowls scantily fed pay scanty profits;
neglect means loss of what you do
give them. AS a rule feed well or kill
tae flock. This should be the rule, for
the results are as sure to follow as day

to penetrate the plate.
